“…[50,96]. They also expressed greater concern for, or commitment to, health and food safety, in keeping with arguments found in the literature, in which selfish motives play a strong role in explaining organic food consumption [17,19,35,37,97,98].…”

“…However, the literature shows that it is easier to instil new values than to change existing ones [43,44,[105][106][107][108], especially in the case of specific values that can be expressed in simple phrases that are easy to get across in communication campaigns. Moreover, considering the crucial importance of selfish values in organic food consumption [17,35,37,97,98], particularly those related to health, perhaps the best way to instil or encourage the behaviour of consuming organic foods is to associate or link the term "health" with "life". In this regard, news items about plastics in the ocean, the Greta Thunberg effect or the ever-increasing number of reports on the link between diet and diabetes, cardiovascular disease and certain types of cancer, etc.…”

“…In the face of such a plurality of papers, food products analysed (each study generally focuses on one food, or two or three at most-see, for example, Chen et al [30], Guney et al [36], Kaygisiz et al [37]), explanatory variables considered and the general lack of consensus on the key factors to increase consumption, what is missing is an effort to synthesize or establish a general model that can be applied universally and allow us to draw global conclusions, to help steer strategies to generate demand. In this regard, there are several questions of interest related to the problem that have not yet been addressed in the literature and that may be useful in explaining different behaviours.…”

You Are What You Eat: The Relationship between Values and Organic Food Consumption

In current times, the man-made problems affecting our planet (climate change, loss of biodiversity, etc.) are making an urgent case for shifting towards a more sustainable kind of consumption. One of the ways these problems can be addressed is to promote organic agriculture, which means boosting levels of organic food consumption. This study examines the relationship between the number of organic foods consumed and the specific values that consumers look for in foods, in order to deepen the current knowledge regarding the behaviour of the organic food consumer. To this end, data was analysed from a face-to-face survey of 776 people in Spain through bivariate analysis techniques. Results show that organic food consumers have a different pattern of values from non-consumers and a greater level of involvement with food in general. Moreover, within the group of organic consumers, the effect of values on the quantity or variety of foods consumed is not as marked, although there are differences in favour of those that consume more frequently. Lastly, the main implication of the results obtained is that, in order to increase consumption, selfish values should be connected with altruistic ones. For this reason, instilling a specific value based on the term or concept “life” is proposed.

“…These aspects meet the attitude of consumer in developed countries where people can make an opinionated decision about their meal taking in considerations animal welfare, sustainability, nutritional, sensory, and ethical factors. It is obvious that, in most countries where poverty and hunger is widespread, HPS still represents a good opportunity to provide quite cheap high value food [14,15]. Worldwide, conventional farming systems account for 67% of poultry meat production and 50% of eggs; an increase in local poultry farming is therefore feasible if supported by a productive and economic perspective [16].…”

Poultry biodiversity for alternative farming systems development

et al. 2022

Poultry biodiversity represents a key factor to improve poultry resilience and promote sustainable and low input farming systems. The EU and member states promote protection of livestock biodiversity and the development of alternative farming through funding projects such as “Local Chicken Breeds in Alternative Production Chain: Welfare, Quality and Sustainability” (funded by the Italian Ministry of Research and University). The aim of the present research was to identify among five different poultry genotypes Bionda Piemontese (BP), Robusta Maculata (RM), RM x Sasso (RMxS), BP x Sasso (BPxS) and a commercial hybrid (Ross 308) the best suitable breed in terms of productivity and welfare for alternative housing system. A total of 300 (60 x genotype), 21 days old male birds were randomly allotted in two housing systems: 1) standard intensive farming (controlled environment, 33 kg/m2 and standard diet) and 2) free-range (“natural” environmental conditions, 21 kg/m2, access to outdoor area and low-input diet). Slaughtering was performed at 81 days of age. During the trial, the productive performance and behaviour of the animals were evaluated. The housing system, the genotype and their interaction significantly affected many of the studied variables, showing broiler not the ideal genotype for extensive farming system, which is more suited for low/medium performance strains.

“…Multinomial Ordered Logistic Regression. Multinomial ordered logistic regression (ordered logit) is quite commonly applied in medicine [28], insurance, actuarial, and fnancial applications [29,30], as well as to describe consumer purchasing behavior [31]. Te ordered logit model can be considered as an extension of the logistic regression model for dichotomous dependent variables, when more than two ordinal response categories are used.…”

The newly developed statistical technique of two-way ordinal analysis of variation (ORDANOVA) was applied for the first time to sensory responses in combination with multinomial ordered logistic regression of a response category vs. chemical composition. A corresponding tutorial is provided. As a case study, samples of a sausage from different producers, purchased at the same time from a market, were compared based on sensory responses of experienced experts. A decomposition of total variation of the ordinal data and simulation of the multinomial distribution of the relative frequencies of the responses in different categories showed a statistically significant difference between the producers’ samples, and an insignificant difference between the experts’ responses related to the same sample. The capabilities of experts were also evaluated. The influence of chemical composition of a sausage sample on the probability of a response category was modeled using multinomial ordered logistic regression of the response on mass fractions of the main sausage components. This statistical technique can be helpful for understanding sources of variation of sensory responses on food quality properties. It is also promising for a revision of specification limits for chemical composition, as well as for the prediction of sensory properties when the chemical composition of the product is subject to quality control.
